The Syrian Center for Human Rights reported today (Tuesday) a third airstrike on forces affiliated with the Syrian regime in the country.
According to the center, 16 Shiite militia fighters were killed in an airstrike in the eastern province of Deir a-Zor.
According to the report, the dead are members of the Hezbollah organization in Iraq, a Shiite militia loyal to Iran, whose men secure the Imam Ali base of the Revolutionary Guards in eastern Syria.
It was also alleged that members of the Fatimion militia killed a force of Afghan mercenaries, who had been recruited by Iran to fight Syria.
Meanwhile, the satellite intelligence company ISI has released a series of satellite images revealing the targets of the attacks attributed to Israel that were carried out yesterday near midnight and on Monday night.
According to the intelligence company, the two attacks focused on Iran's ability to send weapons to Syria by air.
The first attack, which took place at Damascus airport, was aimed at an administrative center and headquarters of the Iranian forces in Syria and also destroyed a large warehouse that was apparently used to transport Nash from Syria to Iran.
The second attack damaged the runway at the military airport in Tias, in Homs province, and also damaged the aircraft parking lot.
The purpose of the attack, the company said, was to delay arms shipments to Iran while the Syrians work on repairing airport facilities.
